Why You Can't Build Muscle With Calisthenics

Спорт

Bodyweight exercises can build muscle.. The problem being after time, most people outgrow calisthenics. This means you'll have to do super high reps to get close to failure for hypertrophy. The smart way is to do weighted calisthenics, isolation exercises at the gym and lift weights. Expect to learn how to mix calisthenics and weights for bodybuilding, key principles for progress and how to design your workout program.

Neither the title nor David is saying you cant build muscle with calisthenics, because that’s obviously wrong.

    I have seen many absolutely shredded men and women building muscle with Calisthenics. They do weighted Calisthenics with progressive overload. Are you going to get the physique of a pro body builder? No, and most people don't want that and don't want to take steroids. You can still get absolutely jacked though and your strength will be way more functional than your average weight lifter. I have always been an advocate for doing a combination of weighted calisthenics and weight lifting for optimal results.

    yeah i mean hypertrophy is hypertrophy right? strength can = size but size can =/= strength. this is why i powerlift instead of bodybuild! and i integrate calisthenics into both powerlifting sets as strength accessories (via hypertrophy) and into conditioning sets as endurance training (also via hypertrophy) so i think i'm enjoying the gym to the fullest! not sure what "functional strength" means considering in day-to-day life i'm required to neither lift barbells nor my own bodyweight, but i suppose anyone who commits to both powerlifting and conditioning will be...as strong as they need to be? as well as have the physique maybe not of their dreams but more than likely of their peers' LMFAO

    ⁠@@YeahTheDuckweed Strength and size are directly related. Gained 5 pounds of muscle? You probably got stronger. Got 5 pounds stronger on bench press? You probably got bigger. Even if in each scenario the results are minimal, like minimal strength gains when training for size, or minimal size when training for strength, the results are still there and they’re still directly related. Size is strength and strength is size. In no world can you get bigger and weaker or stronger and smaller. Except maybe calisthenics because if you get smaller and stronger, well you don’t actually get stronger, you just got lighter so it’s easier for you to move, and it’s the exact same except the other way around if you get bigger and weaker in calisthenics. The only time it happens is if you mainly got bigger and only got a little bit stronger, so now there’s more weight to carry but you haven’t developed the strength to carry it. But if you’re doing solely weight lifting you can never get only strength or only size, you will always get both. You will only have minimal gains on one end depending on your training, but either way it’s still gains, so strength and size are still directly related.

Other times I focus more on specifics like plyometrics, cardio, etc.

    Hey Daniel, love your videos, they really are a source of inspiration! I've started training for calisthenics 3 months ago, doing compounds only as I was heavy for my height and it was clear I was to heavy and lacking muscles to do any other exercises. Although I was rigourous with the ROM and isometrics and I tried to avoid kipping as much as possible, I kept injuring my joints and getting ridiculously sore. I finally resorted to try to go to a gym and use weighted exercises to target specific muscle groups. Of course I am still beginning but the difference of not fatiguing the whole body just to train the upper body and such with the feeling of training specific body parts much more efficiently for my body type is night and day. I truly believe going to the gym and building muscles to prevent injuries and your wonderful videos will keep me motivated and on track to better results and performance. Next purchase is a log book and I'll be sure to write your name to the credits to thank you once I reach my goal! Cherrs

    I'd consider myself much more in the weightlifting side of things as far as my personal routine goes. But I have always, as part of a balanced workout, included a bodyweight movement for each main muscle group. Chest/tris day I do dips, dips are a personal fav, when you get to the point it almost feels like you could do BW dips forever, that's a good feeling. Back/Bis day I do chin-ups. my least favourite BW movement included in my routine. Legs/Shoulders day I do Pull ups. Similar to dips, when you can do 20+ strict reps and have full control over speed of movement with barely noticeable fatigue during, that's a good feeling. Thank you for the great video, I think I will definitely try and do some more calisthenics!

    I will say a few things. First … Daniel you are definitely top notch KZreadr and have top notch knowledge about fitness and building a fantastic physique. But I think there is a lot more to it for most people that have been doing it as long as you or i have. Been at it for 17 years now. Age 36 this year and feel better then ever. For the streeet lifting guys you mentioned. You are right that they do hours of workouts etc for similar results. But I do follow a lot of them and for them for what they state it’s more then just building a physique. It’s about strength endurance and mental toughness. Just look at the iron wolf. His physique is average but he will out do anyone out there “fitness” wise. It’s just about goals at the end of the day. Another example would be Central Park Joe. Great physique especially in his 60s(even for 99%) out there and he does various workouts to the day. Another point I wanna make(I could be totally wrong ). You state your body doesn’t know or care about the weight you’re doing. It’s about progressive overload even with lighter weights. Well if that were true would it not be the same as your body doesn’t know or care the name of the “exercise your doing daily “. Because at the end of the day resistance is resistance ? It doesn’t know oh I’m doing a barbell press instead of a pike press today therefore I’m not gonna grow as much because it’s not exactly what I did this past workout or training phase ? And everyone is different as well I would say. I live a very busy life. Wife kids owning businesses(same with you and loads others ) but my workout times and days are never the same. I try and get 5-6 workouts a week but some days I have 2 hours but in the morning but others I may have an hour at night time or 30 minutes in the afternoon depending on schedules. So for the most part I’ve switched my workouts accordingly for years and have built a great lean muscular physique. I think the main part for me has been consistency and effort. Hope you see this. Again I think you’re the best of the best out there. I just think there is more to talk about when it comes to fitness.

    Also side note I was just thinking of is when it comes to certain movements Iike bodybuilding weight stuff it literally bores me to death. It’s just the way my mind works I guess. I did it for years. Probably the first ten years of my fitness journey. Did it all for the optimal gains. And definitely works. But I came to a realization that I wanna stay and be fit well into my 70s and be happy doing it so these days I do what I love. Eat healthy Whole Foods maintain a lean muscular physique and keep at it. I don’t get too concerned anymore if my bicep grew another 1/4inch or if I have an extra shred in my chest.

    One thing I need to learn to accept is that 1 more rep is already progress even if you don’t feel gassed. Don’t push it to failure every workout, chase reps and small weight progression over weeks/months, not extreme single workouts. In 6 months it adds up and the injury’s stay away.

    Is this what your hybrid program is about? I've been interested in that program as I thoroughly enjoyed the BBR program, but didn't know much about the hybrid.

    Thanks man, this was very insightful I've heard that it's easier to gain strength after training for some hypertrophy first. Do you think this is true based on your experience?

    i enjoy high rep more then low rep high weight. Also less injuries from my experience so far. but yes its condition limited. Got sick for 60 days this winter and my airways took a absolute beating (worst flu ever or the other one which i dodged all 3 years lol). I have half the lung capacity of what i used to have. when i jst got bette it was less then 20%. its slowly improving but where i used to do 3 sets of 30 curls a arm with 15kg where i started to feel the burn at 22-25 but could keep going to 30-35 ish but now i feel the burn at 10-15 and I have to call it quits at 20-25 ish even tho i got stronger die to the curl bar training at higher weight. my bench which was low weight high reps also suffer. oh well consition will get better and i will get there again.

    4:20 You can see he remembered that he was in the gym just before it cuts. All jokes aside this is top content, I’ve always neglected recording sessions even though I know it’s a crucial part for results. This changes today! Cheers and don’t pretend to go to the gym if you have one 🍻

    Daniel: "I've spent hours doing tons of pull ups...." Great. That is why I like your advice. If I could do tons of pullups, I would be happy. That is all the muscle growth I need.

    Yep weighted calisthenics and slow steady reps, especially during the negative motion, the slower, more intense the hold the better.

    Excellent video. I've never understood the whole, "you can build muscle with 30 reps" line. Okay, you can, but why? Like you said the 8-12-ish rep range is far more efficient.

    I use bodyweight for upper body and weights for legs. There's not a whole lot you can progressively overload for hamstrings with just your bodyweight. Even the Nordic Curl requires a specialised setup or a partner to hold your legs down

    I have a workout program. I use it to see how little I have to do maintain strength while improving my cardio.
